CAIRO -- The two sons of ousted
President Hosni Mubarak have an estimated $340 million in Swiss bank
accounts, a senior Egyptian Justice Ministry official said Monday.

Assem
al-Gohary said Swiss authorities are investigating whether one of the
sons, Alaa, was involved in money laundering along with other ex-regime
figures. At home, Mubarak and his sons have been charged with corruption
and all three are under arrest. Mubarak is also charged with complicity
in the killing of about 850 protesters during the Jan. 25-Feb. 11
Egyptian uprising.

Switzerland has already frozen the assets of
the Mubarak family and other ex-Egyptian regime figures, which al-Gohary
estimated at nearly $450 million. He added that most of those assets
belong to the sons.
